Hallett Vector for sale......

[boatsnblondes]

That's right, you read right. Now that Chris and I are up here in Northern Cal, we have decided to sell the beloved Hallett, and find a different boat. It is just a little too much boat for up here in these lakes, needs a river or the delta to stretch out and run, so we are looking to make a small change around here. <Also, we are planning on starting our family sometime early next year, need to trim things up a little>.
So, here are the stats, I am putting it on here first, as you guys on here are boaters, and know what you are looking at.
The boat is done. Last pics I posted it was still being rebuilt, but all that is over, and except for a small tweak here and there, if runs NICE. I have not had a chance to stretch it all the way out, as I am still seating the cam, so I can tell you for SURE that it does 40-50 mph. :rollside: If I were to keep it, those numbers would be changed in a few months..right now, i am bing gentle with it.
The boat itself is an '86, most likely it was a race boat, as it had the fule returns to the gas tank so characteristic of a huffer motor. The hull was completely color sanded and buffed, and had the gelcoat repaired in 2004, it is brand new except for some slight cracking up on the bow area. Other than that, it is pristine for a boat this age. I am the third owner, the guy before me, was looking to rebuild the boat completely, and started with the interior first, so all the seats and carpeting are basically new excpet for the time I have spent in it. All new gauges, and dash also. There is also a stereo, but I took out the head unit, and have not replaced it. All the speakers and the amps are there though. All of the interior and seats are new, as are the gauges, there is nothing original to the boat in this area.
I bought it, used it for one season, and tore out the motor in the fall. EVERYTHING came out, nothing of the original rig is still in the boat. The motor is a 468, 9.5/1 compression, lightning headers, MSD ignition, holley 800 carb, cam driven water pump, power steering pump, new motor from start to finish. Those interested email me and I'll send you a build sheet. External oil and PS cooler, holley blue fuel pump, sea strainer, braided and annodized everything. Motor runs smooth and LOUD!!
On the transom, it has a bravo one drive, with an Imco lower end, Mercruiser 4 blade prop. Also has Imco full helm power steering, Dana HP 1000 trim tabs, as well as Dana swim steps mounted to the transom. This is by far the nicest Vector I have ever seen, and I have seen a lot, it's just better suited to Southern Cal. than up here. Let me know if your interested, next week it goes up in the classifieds here, and into boat trader also. Have not decided on a price yet. Hope you all had a great summer, mine was busy, though being able to walk from my house to the Tuollumne in 5 mins. makes it all worth it. And the woggies love it also. Leave me a message here, or, PM me and I'll get back to you as soon as I can. Pics by the end of the week, I promise.
P.S. I FORGOT THE TRAILER!!!!!!!!!! Trailer has been COMPLETELY rebuilt by custom trailers in Upland. Had it sandblasted down to the bare metal, then rebondoed and repainted red. I put in new axles, with disk brakes, so it now has four brakes on it, new stainless fenders, side guides, (Chromed), LED lights, electric lockout for the brakes, new bunkers and fender insides, and a new winch and nosewheel. I also cut off the old hitch and put on a new one. This trailer is and R&S, 6" box steel, very stable at faster towing speedsand trails very nicely. Wheels are set way back, which I like.
P.S.S.....after this goes, I will be looking HARD for either a DCB 24 Extreme, preferably the white, yellow and purple, or the purple and teal, or a nice schiada 21' V drive...anyone got a line???

[boatsnblondes]

I'm having a really hard time getting the photos uploaded onto this site, they keep getting rejected for being too big. Anyone know of a good size I can reduce them to so that I can get them on here?? Also, I DID manage to get a couple of them onto the ad on Craigslist, here is a link to that one....2 out of 4 on that one, still trying to get 3&4 on there, keep checking back for them on here or on there.....thanks.....

[Beer-30]

The one's above are a better size.
I put all of mine at 1024x768. That is full-screen on most PCs and laptops.

[boatsnblondes]

Come on guys......offers?? You won't find a vector like this anywhere.....if it does not go soon..I'm gonna throw in the towel on selling it and play with it for the summer.....going once..........

[blackcloud75]

what is your price range? what ya looking to get?

[boatsnblondes]

Bump!!! BACK TO THE TOP.....

[boatsnblondes]

Bump!! Come omn guys...SOMEONE one here has to know what they are looking at here.......offers??

[hallett21]

is it just a go fast boat/?? i only c 1 seat.:( our vector well do 70 but its got full seating and an OUTBOARD. watl she do on a normal day??:D :D

[hallett21]

p.s. i challenge u 2 a race!!!!! :D :D new prop and fine tuning we may c 80

[boatsnblondes]

You wouldn't want to do that...we have no idea how fast it will go.....the HP is around 550-600....Hallett thinks high 80's low 90's..., maybe more?? As for the boat...the pics show it in the finishing stages of being rigged..so the seats and all were in storage....two captains chairs, and a love seat...total engine cover with dual rams....as for the boat...it is fast, but no the fastest..I built it to be the best of both worlds....a great ski boat, but a go fast with the boys boat also....I would be surprised to get 90 out of it....I have not yet tried to speed run it yet, as I am still putting in time on it at 40-50mph to seat the cam. If it does not sell, I will finish the break ins on it this summer and report back that it most likely is more boat than even I expected it to be....but for the moment....I think all around its a great one...I have some shots of it in the garage..finished..but the files are too big..would LOVE to post them..but no idea how to get them to a file size that works...if i reduce them too much..they look like crap....any ideas???

[boatsnblondes]

One last thing..I can not stress how nce this boat came out....this is without a doubt the nicest vector around....there are some great ones on here...but I have yet to see one this nice.....:D

[dicudmore]

first problem selling this rig, and it is BEAUTIFUL from the pics--is that you're gonna be hard pressed to find a bank to write a loan on a 1986 boat. You gotta find somebody with 70K burning a hole in their pocket...

[boatsnblondes]

I know....but I also know that most people who know about boats, also know what they are looking at, and what they will spend to do it new...this is a great deal....at least $50,000 off new.....

[revndave]

Do you have any pics of completed boat?

Dave, thanks for the help...really appreciate it...NOW....anyone wanna buy a serious Hallett????

[bigq]

that doesn't make you nervous having that water heater back there??:eek:

[boatsnblondes]

Well, I've never smelled any fumes back in there.....the tanks have a little fuel in them..but I never thought that it was a problem......you thinkin I should move it or something?? I figure if I can park a car in there, the boat should be fine....tell me if I am missing something???

[boatsnblondes]

MAybe you guys really DON'T know what you are looking at here...replacement value for this boat is over $100,000......to build half this boat will cost you more than I am asking for it.....this is a true 90-100 mph boat, the only boat on here even close is Keiths' schiada....Keith, hate to see you sell that baby bro....the reason my selling price is higher is because this is basiaclly a brand new boat....everything is unused, except for the breakin time....top speed numbers are from Hallett, after extensive crunch seesions with them planning the power....come guys, give me a call, lets talk....209-874-2448....$75,000 takes it...might take cash plus another boat...
